Invergordon – but the eventual kick from Ben Kelly was saved by Godding, who reacted superbly to palm the ball away to safety.

Gary Campbell’s men were unable to extend their advantage in the first period though, thanks to a man of the match performance from William Godding in the Saints goal, who kept his aggressors at bay valiantly.

Things were more even upon the restart, and less than ten minutes in, St Duthus notched a surprise leveller through Bradi Hulme, the plucky striker hitting a first time shot beyond Slaney after a run into the box from Finn As-Chainey.

he destination of the North Caledonian FA’s first trophy of the 2022-23 season was decided by two late strikes on November 12, with Invergordon pipping local rivals St Duthus in the final at Golspie. The teams were originally scheduled to meet on North Caledonian League duty on the same fixture day, but their fate as finalists was sealed after St Duthus secured their place with a semi-final penalties win over Clachnacuddin, and Invergordon beat league leader Loch Ness 3-1 in close fought win at Fortrose. In front of a packed crowd at King George V Park, Invergordon dominated in the

period, with Sam Ross of St Duthus most notably heading over the bar from 5 yards out. With their only substitute of the game, Invergordon completely undid the locks on the St Duthus defence, and placed one hand on the cup with goal on 83 minutes.

A long free kick was nodded down by Charlie MacDonald and first to the ball, Andrew Miller prodded the ball into the net. The wind swept out of the Saints’ sails and just minutes later Miller added a second to send Invergordon supporters into celebration, finishing well with a low driven stike after being played in behind the defence by Kelly. Post-match, Man of the Match William Godding was presented with an engraved hip flask, before league secretary Sandy Stephen called forward the winning captain, Jack Mackay, up to collect the trophy. Mr Stephen thanked both participating clubs and their committees, the cup final match officials, hosts Golspie Sutherland and sponsors Inverness Trophy Centre for a well attended final. A paying crowd of 108 watched the final, with a gate of £540 raised towards two charities of the clubs’ choosing, namely Mikeysline and
